When I started playing back in the 1.x iteration, I wanted to complete the daily missions. So, I bought a tier VIII and went off trying. The loss rate got so bad when playing tier VIII missions that I wanted to throw this out and go back to WoT. But, I stuck with it and there were days of more losses than wins and vice versa. But, if you start loosing, just walk away and come back later on. It is not Wot where you go down the line as fast as you can to see how many Tier X tanks you can get with the only crew and more skills than leaves on a tree. This game requires you to determine where you are going to go, what targets are important and what you can do to help win the game whether there are all human players or only you. The 'kill-me all" mentality of Wot does not seem to apply here or so I have a tendency to think. I tend to finish the tier before going onto the next one, but each has their own style. Just keep at it and take it in increments, Most players who drop out find that the first few levels are a cake walk then find out how much harder it gets as you go up the chain. Different classes of planes require different play styles. By exposing your self to them you get a feel of how to best use the plane for its intended purpose.

Encyclopedia here. Much better at times in this than the other overrated titles (well sometimes). No working in getting from tier VII to VIII the premiums are for the last stage in the daily missions until I can hit the tree tier planes.

No secret I hated the game and quit playing it in beta. But, I do like what they've done in 2.0. Had a fun weekend. Lost most of my games on Saturday, despite having half human teams. But, topped it off with 100% wins Sunday with mostly bots and humans that quit during the battle. Weird.
